Are you one of those super organised people, who have already started preparing for Christmas? Then now is the time to think about oak flooring! I can tell that you’re now thinking that, it's quite a leap from picking presents in September. However, bear with me and imagine the scene: your family all gathered in the front room, the adults on the sofa watching as the children collect the presents from under the tree. Beautiful solid oak flooring would make this scene perfect, reflecting the rosy glow of the fire back in to the room. Another great point for the practical among you, is that cleaning pine needles off wood flooring is as simple as using a dustpan and brush. Unlike, carpets that seem to gather needles and keep them for months no matter how many times you hoover! If the aforementioned scene appeals to you, then now is the time to install your new oak flooring. At Floorsave, we have a huge selection of wood flooring options to choose from. This includes both solid and engineered flooring options, so you can find the perfect option for your home.
Solid oak flooring is perfect for the majority of homes, as it is a robust wood, which allows for a longer lasting floor. One of the major benefits of taking the solid route is that you can sand your floor multiple times over the years. Unlike the many engineered floors, which can only tolerate a couple of sandings over its lifespan. Engineered oak flooring is ideal if you are looking to install under floor heating to the room. As the planks are formed out of layers of different types of wood, placed at different angles, the boards are less likely to bend or contract with the heat generated by the system. These boards have a top layer of wood which forms the part of the board that you see in the room, by choosing an oak finish, you can still have the appearance of solid oak flooring. Here at Floorsave, our staff have years of experience and as such are happy to advice should you have any queries about choosing oak flooring or any type of floor, give us a call and we will help you to make the perfect choice for your home.
